When I was younger my rock in the storm was my dad. When I was feeling upset or low, I would talk to him. He always made my problems seem smaller than they were. He made it feel like everything was going to be okay. He died when I was seventeen, and there isn’t aContinue reading “My Rock in the Storm”

Peter and Paul fly home
https://lindaghill.com/author/lindaghill/ When I moved to my new home three years ago I thought the solar panels would be a great asset. They would save me money on my bill (which they did) and all would be good. Three years along and the only thing I would give as a negative are the pigeons. They haveContinue reading “Peter and Paul fly home”
If I Were a Rich . . .
First of all, I want to say that this picture doesn’t remind me of untold riches. There are two things it reminds me of – one of them are family poker nights when I was a child. My nan, who I never met, used to hold card schools. When mum grew up, her and allContinue reading “If I Were a Rich . . .”
For SHARE YOUR WORLD (Squirrelly Style) 9-20-2021
If I were in a comedy duo, I would be the straight man, and my son would be the funny one. He says funny things without even trying. I think it is partly to do with his autism – he has a sort of dry humour and is naturally gifted in that way. I tendContinue reading “For SHARE YOUR WORLD (Squirrelly Style) 9-20-2021”
When I grow up
Also, this is my https://fivedotoh.com/2022/09/23/fandangos-flashback-friday-september-23rd/ In answer to the question, what did I want to be when I grew up. I’ve always wanted to be a writer, that has never changed. I am a writer now, and was when I was five. I also wanted to be an actress. I was going to be centreContinue reading “When I grow up”
#46 – Surprises Prompt
I don’t like to be surprised, pleasant or otherwise. I was told something yesterday, that knocked me sideways. I won’t say what it was, but I didn’t take it well. But then am an emotional sort of person, who tends to wear their heart firmly attached to their sleeve. I cry at sad moments inContinue reading “#46 – Surprises Prompt”
For Stream of Consciousness – Puzzle
https://wordpress.com/tag/stream-of-consciousness-saturday Life is a puzzle full of pieces that fit, and some that don’t. But that is okay because we are all different. It would be boring if were all the same. Saying that, since starting my blog I have come across many like minded people. Writers of poetry, novels and short stories. I’m enjoyingContinue reading “For Stream of Consciousness – Puzzle”
#I Remember When
I remember when I didn’t want to own a dog, I was more of a cat person than anything. My first cat I inherited from my sister – Candy. Other cats we had along the way. Cindy, Chelsea, Cleo, Jess and Nyya. When I was first persuaded to get a dog I still wasn’t sure,Continue reading “#I Remember When”
Word Prompts
https://wordofthedaychallenge.wordpress.com/ All this food reminded me of a project I was part of a couple of years ago. As part of my writing group we were asked to write about food stories, and ask people about their favourite food. This is what I wrote from all the different people I interviewed. They were then readContinue reading “Word Prompts”
Truthful Tuesday Prompt
When dining out does the suburb quality of the food make up for substandard service, or does stellar service make up for substandard food? I would have to say that I’ve not dined out in many fancy restaurants. I’m more of a Harvester girl myself. There is nothing wrong with a great salad, gammon, chips,Continue reading “Truthful Tuesday Prompt”
